Me Dê a Mão

This movie made a very strong impression on me. It amazed me to see the other reviewer smashing it to smithereens. Clearly he/she did not get the point of the movie: the strange bond of twins, jealousy, betrayal. I found it profoundly moving and deeply sad. I highly recommend it for those who are interested in character development and not a splashy trashy film. The two brothers were extremely well played; the violence between the two of them seemed to indicate an unspoken attraction between the two of them. What is interesting that until it is made clear that the two are brothers, one could easily assume that they are lovers. The people they encounter on their journey serve only as catalysts to reinforce the depth of their strange bond.

I was very disappointed with this movie. After reading the information about it, it sounded interesting but the movie is very slow moving and only has roughly 20 lines of dialog in the whole movie! The director spends way too much time showing the boys walking down a road, walking through a forest, walking through a field, walking, walking, walking. If you ever wanted to see a movie that shows people walking, this one's for you. Otherwise, I considered it a waste of my time. Aside from a few scenes where they have sex with people they come across on the road, there is very little character development because as previously mentioned, there isn't much dialog. And don't expect to make any more sense out of them at the end of the movie - nope, it just ends without any type of resolution.

MISSED OPPORTUNITY!! This could have been a wonderfully meaningful and emotional film. You have good-looking leads (who do an admirable job) and some quality moments ...along with a compelling message that "Blood is NOT thicker than water." But wading through the clutter and poorly structured film wears you down. In the end, you simply want to walk away.

After a couple of days, when someone asked me, "What was the film about?" All I could really say "it was about two boys walking."

My advice; if you wish to watch this film: "Fast Forward" as soon as the walking begins. You will save an hour and NOT MISS A THING!!

Thankful for this film because I am now aware of the existence of Alexander and Victor Carril. They're so cute! Major heartthrobs.

Overall, I liked the film for the most part, but there were definitely some weird parts. I spent the first 15 min confused and trying to establish what the objective of this movie was because all that had been shown up to that point was a pair of twins running away from a bakery and aimlessly hiking out in the wilderness to some unknown destination. More dialogue would've been useful, not just in the beginning, but throughout the whole film. It's a disturbing thought to think about how the rando gas station chick slept with both brothers, in the same day, (presumably) without bathing in-between. There were a few sweet moments of brotherly love where you could tell the twins really cared about one another despite the constant back-and-forth. However, those moments were brief and fleeting once you remember one of the brothers is homophobic and pimped out his brother for 100 euros before abandoning him in a public restroom where he was almost sexually assaulted. That kind of "brotherly love" makes me glad I only have sisters 👀😅

2 twins traveling to their mom's funeral are so close they resent almost every move of the other. Sibling rivalry that almost ends with horseplay in the ocean.
